And young people are still learning Fortran today, though it's not the most common language any more, and we tend to learn several different ones.

I didn't learn fortran in university, but I did have to learn it for a job. It's still THE language for scientific computing. So in any job in or adjacent to scientific computing, you're bound to run into fortran.
